    This could hopefully solve something that has bugged me for years. My brotheris friendly with an airline pilot, who allegedly told my brother that 9/10 landings are carried out by auto pilot, and that the one they do land manually is just to ‘keep their hand in.’. I’ve told my brother a million times about exaggerating but, but he isn’t prone to giant whoppas. So have always wondered if there was any truth in it.

    I imagine Omur and Mehlem will battle out for the attacking midfield role. They will both get plenty of game time with games coming thick and fast, 5 substitutes, Omur providing wing cover and of course injuries.

    To me, if we get 2 additional fast direct wingers in, our depth looks much more balanced than last year.

    Barring Jaden all our wide options were floaty 10s doing a job on the wing. In terms of midfield you had Seri Slater and Docherty, the options there look much healthier assuming the rumoured players come in.

    Wouldn't be surprised at all, and not really bothered either. I'd guess it's not particularly difficult tech these days.

    not sure on the numbers
    but many are done with autopilot

    when its extremely windy like today
    its most likely manual landing

    Once we have wingers sorted. The only type of player I think we're screaming out for is a smaller more agile striker. I get that Walters system works around having a big man in the middle. But we're lumping balls into the box and nothings working surely we'd need some kind of variation up front?

    The message from @AlfredoPedulla would fit with my posted info that a possible switch to @hullcity could fall through.

    ▪️ There are active negotiations between @Eintracht and @HellasVeronaFC
    ▪️ Various options are being discussed
    ▪️ Loan including purchase option/obligation or direct purchase
    ▪️ Exclusive info: Agreement between the player side & #Verona already exists regarding the contract contents in case of a permanent transfer

    Interesting that it’s Verona again who are after Bosenik. Maybe they have decided to go for Alidou and we get Bosenik?

    I’m not too fussed about Alidou as he’s left sided and supposedly has attitude problems

    This from my son who works as senior cabin crew out of Gatwick.
    Most flights use autopilot up until the last two minutes in order to perfectly align with the runway and have the correct glide slope but planes can’t actually land themselves or brake themselves so pilots will always land manually. Some pilots do manual landings all the time for training and don’t use autopilot at all and sometimes you have to use it due to weather. Some planes have different capabilities with autopilot which is why some planes can land anywhere in any weather and some can’t. The A380 and 787 can auto land in any conditions but smaller aircraft can’t.

    I think that’s quite untrue. Taking off is safe, landing is safe, it’s crashing that’s dangerous.
